<h1>Looking at the "Hongwu Case", Qin Sheng reported that Liu Xuan, the minister of Qincha who was inspecting the disaster areas in Shandong, demanded bribes by taking advantage of his position, and Zhu Yuanzhang immediately had Liu Xuan arrested. </h1>
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to promote Qin, the household attendant, to the position of Minister of Chincha who inspected Shandong. At this time, Qin Sheng was only 26 years old, and his father Qin Lianggang was also an official in the dprk, familiar with the stakes of the officialdom, believing that Qin Sheng was still young in age, and strongly opposed his son's appointment as the minister of Chincha. However, Qin Sheng was full of ambition, and it can be said that the calves were not afraid of tigers and wolves; Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Qin Sheng was young but ambitious, so he sent Zhang Zigong, a member of the household department, to accompany him to inspect the disaster situation in Shandong.
As soon as Qin Sheng arrived in Yanzhou, Shandong Province, he gave relief to the victims with a sumptuous wine and vegetables arranged by the prefect Wu Xingwu and others, and only allocated two vegetarian dishes and a bowl of rice to each official present. Yanzhou was starving, and almost all of the relief grain was swallowed up by the prefect Wu Xingwu and others. When Qin Sheng first arrived, he did not know the depth of the local officialdom, and in order to help the victims of the disaster, Qin Sheng vigorously collected grain and adjusted grain. Notices were also posted to expose the behavior of prefectural and county officials in taking advantage of the flood disaster to embezzle and extort money for personal gain. As soon as this notice came out, the prefect Wu Xingwu and other corrupt officials saw that they had seriously violated their interests, so they wanted to win Qin Sheng over and drag Qin Sheng into the water. They seduced Qin Sheng with the hue of the Qinglou woman, and then sent exquisite jade bowls, but Qin Sheng was not moved and refused one by one.
Wu Xingwu and others saw that the plan could not be achieved, so they turned to Cai Xuan for help. Cai Xuan was the prefect of Suzhou, and returned to his hometown in Yanzhou because of the secret investigation of Qin Sheng's personality. Cai Xuan was scheming, so Wu Xingwu asked him for help, and Cai Xuan then gave Wu Xingwu a plan.
Wu Xingwu and others sent a box of gold and silver jewelry to the residence of The Beijing Master Qin Sheng, in order to plant stolen goods and frame Qin Sheng for bribery. This plan worked, and soon Qin Sheng was dismissed from his post and imprisoned. In order to investigate Qin Sheng's case, Zhu Yuanzhang sent the minister Guo Hongxiang to Yanzhou, Wu Xingwu sent someone to send gold to Guo Hongxiang, Guo Hongxiang was dragged into the water, according to wu Xingwu and others, Zhu Yuanzhang said that Qin Sheng used the name of disaster relief to extort money.
In order to understand this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang personally came to Yanzhou to interrogate Qin Sheng, because no one defended Qin Sheng, and everyone insisted that Qin Sheng was corrupt and perverted the law and extorted money. Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to ask Guo Hongxiang to continue interrogating Qin Sheng, and he himself was leaving Yanzhou because of the incident. Guo Hongxiang used torture to entertain Qin Sheng, but Qin Sheng could not resist and had no choice but to confess to the crime of demanding and accepting bribes.
Guo Hongxiang and Wu Xingwu and others saw that Qin Sheng had confessed and planned to execute Qin Sheng secretly, not wanting Zhu Yuanzhang to shoot a return rifle. Zhu Yuanzhang, who returned to Yanzhou halfway, learned the truth of the matter from the people and personally interrogated Guo Hongxiang, and under torture, Guo Hongxiang finally confessed that he had accepted bribes from Wu Xingwu and others to frame Qin Sheng. Zhu Yuanzhang then took Wu Xingwu and others into custody and awaited justice; he reinstated Qin Sheng's post as chancellor and told him to finish handling Yanzhou and then inspect Suzhou.
Cai Xuan, the prefect of Suzhou, was a scheming master, and he knew that Qin Sheng liked calligraphy and painting, liked to play Go, and suffered from a waist injury. So he asked a famous doctor to treat Qin Sheng's waist, threw himself into his favor, and played Go with Qin Sheng, talked about calligraphy and painting, and Qin Sheng gradually had a good feeling for Cai Xuan. Cai Xuan saw that Qin Sheng was really good at winning over, so he borrowed the name of asking for Qin Sheng's character and gave Qin Sheng the original copy of a famous painting of the Southern Song Dynasty, "Four Plum Blossoms". Qin Sheng was originally interested in calligraphy and painting, and he was very happy to get famous paintings! Cai Xuan saw that Qin Sheng was so easily deceived, so he drugged him in the wine and let his distant niece Cai Yu seduce Qin Sheng with hue, and when they were making love, Cai Xuan led people into the house, framed Qin Sheng for raping a good family woman, and forced Qin Sheng to obey. Qin Sheng was very fond of Cai Yu, so he compromised with Cai Xuan!
Qin Sheng took bribes and got the beauty Cai Yu, who tried his best to protect Cai Xuan and others in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. Later, Qin Sheng rushed back to Suzhou to meet Cai Yu, and Zhu Yuanzhang became suspicious of him and sent someone to Suzhou to investigate. Qin Sheng was eventually found to have asked for bribes and colluded with corrupt officials to commit adultery. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Qin Sheng, Cai Xuan, and others to be beheaded in Beijing, and Cai Yu cut his hair as a nun.
Then, as the minister of Qin Chao, Qin Sheng was still a selfless and selfless prince who served the country and the people when he first inspected the disaster, so why did he finally become a corrupt official who colluded with corrupt officials and corrupt officials?

Young and vigorous, he does not know the stakes of the officialdom
Since Qin Sheng was appointed as the minister of Chincha, he seemed hesitant and ambitious, always thinking of some good achievements to show the imperial court. But he did not know how deep the waters of the local officialdom really were, and his father, Qin Lianggang, who was familiar with the stakes of the officialdom, had strongly dissuaded him from inspecting the localities. In fact, Qin Lianggang did this for the good of Qin Sheng, as the saying goes: Zhizi Moruo father. He knew that Qin Sheng was young and vigorous, overwhelmed by heavy responsibilities, and had recently become an official, and his experience was still shallow. How can you fight those old fritters who have been in the official arena for a long time? Sure enough, as soon as Qin Sheng arrived in Yanzhou, he was "secretly restrained" by the prefect Wu Xingwu and others, Qin Sheng thought that he was a minister of QinCha, and others did not dare to make trouble under his own eyes, but where did he know that the corrupt official Wu Xingwu was in the dark, he was in the light. Wu Xingwu and others can operate in the dark, and one count cannot regenerate until they drag him into the water!
(2) Easily reveal what you like, so that people with ulterior motives have an opportunity to take advantage of it
Qin Sheng loves to play Go, calligraphy and painting, etc., which let Cai Xuan, the prefect of Suzhou, know everything clearly, and before that, he also specially sent people to investigate Qin Sheng's personality and personality. Cai Xuan was a scheming man, he first figured out Qin Sheng's details, and then used clever tricks to win him over, so that things could be done with half the effort. He knew that Qin Sheng had a waist injury, so he ordered someone to treat his injury first, so as to cast a good hand; after Qin Sheng slowly had a good feeling for him, he went further, and so on. Qin Sheng couldn't see any flaws, and fell into the trap that Cai Xuan had set for him step by step! I have to say that Cai Xuan is worthy of being an old fritter who has been mixed in the muddy waters of the official field for a long time, if he masters your character and bottom line, he is basically at his mercy! And Qin Sheng is an example.

Too upright and not manipulative
Qin Sheng was originally a good official with the same integrity as Dao Tong, but Qin Sheng was blackened in the end. This is not that Qin Sheng's position is unstable, but that Qin Sheng is too young and has not enough concentration on temptation before he is dragged into the water. He is still a good official in his bones, but because he cannot fight corrupt officials and corrupt officials, he has been tainted by corrupt officials and corrupt officials when he is unwilling, and he has no choice but to flow with the dirt. Qin Sheng's investigation of corruption and bribery is also his fatal shortcoming, and he will not play with power like other officials! If Qin Sheng held a position in a place where almost all of them were Qing officials, his integrity could be his prospects were unlimited; but investigating cases in places where almost all corrupt officials were corrupt officials, his integrity would not only be of no use, but would even cost him his life!
The best way to rectify corrupt officials is to treat them in the same way as a person, and not to come with corrupt officials is a wise move to investigate corrupt officials and corrupt officials. When Qin Sheng thoroughly investigated corrupt officials and corrupt officials, he posted it in a big way, and in addition to striking grass and snakes, he also put himself in danger!
